The city is facing significant challenges in implementing its Climate Equity Plan, which aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040. Recent analysis indicates that 11 of 17 goals need support or are off track. Key areas needing attention include sustainable buildings and transportation. Although $242 million in federal grants have been secured, further funding is necessary, and budgetary constraints are hampering progress. A comprehensive climate implementation program is expected to be released in March, but logistical challenges and the need for collaboration among city departments remain obstacles.
The city must rework its Climate Equity Plan to overcome budget constraints and achieve net-zero emissions by 2040, as many goals remain unsupported.
